Installation & Maintenance Instructions MFT Mixed Flow In-Line Fans
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, INJURY TO PERSONS, PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY 1. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, ensure that the electrical service to the fan is locked in the “OFF” position to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device such as a tag to the service panel. Do not re-establish power supply until the fan has been completely installed. 2.

Make sure to disconnect the fan from the power mains prior to any cleaning. Proper maintenance (Figures 14-19 ) includes periodic cleaning of the fan surfaces from dirt and dust. The impeller blades require thorough cleaning every 6 months. Remove the self-tapping screws (Figure 16) and disconnect the grill from the casing (Figure 17). Wipe the fan blades with a soft cloth soaked in a mild detergent, avoiding dripping on the electric motor.
The MFT fan has been duly certified as serviceable.
